Kyphoplasty with Rotary Cutter
The balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with contrast agent for height restoration. Then, the cement is injected into the cavity created by the balloon.
The balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with contrast agent for height restoration, which may induce a cavity with barriers pushed by balloon dilatation. Then, the structure of the cavity is destroyed by a rotary cutter. Finally, the cement is injected, which may effectively interdigitates with the healthy cancellous bone.
